Excerpt from Hill Directory Co; 'S Goldsboro, N. C. City Directory, 1925, Vol. 12: Embracing an Alphabetical Directory of Firms, Corporations, Private Citizens, City and County Governments, Churches, Public and Private Schools, Secret and Benevolent Institutions, Banks and a Street and Avenue Guide Goldsboro dates back to the time of Sir Walter Raleigh, who, if he did noth ing greater than exploit the section wherein is located the Gate City, is entitled for this one act to a full meed of praise. In the many years that have elapsed since then, Goldsboro has pursued the even tenor of its ways and its citizens have been content to enjoy and prosper under its advantages until it has secured a foundation on which to create and which will enable it to build like the wise man of did - upon a solid rock which will withstand the storms of panics, short crops and the greed of politicians. In the building of this city to date ideal citizenship has been kept constantly in mind, and the greater duration of the visit of the stranger within its gates the more surely there comes the charm of intercourse with a hospitable, democratic class of citizens whose ideals are worth of character instead of a measure of the bank account. Here is the dividing line between the frigid climate of the north and the enervating climate of the tropics. Here is found nine months of summer with only three of a not unpleasant autumn or winter temperature. Here one is within a daylight journey of New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Washington, Savannah, Atlanta and Jacksonville.
